I'd appreciate it if you didnt talk about it in that way, I never said I was better than anyone, nor that my reads should be listened to without explanation, im just relaxing and being lazy.
These posts shade Sakura fwiw. You imply she's millenial and thus lesser.
VOTE: titus
I'm doing this.
calling someone a millennial being on the same footing with shading them has to be the most nonsense thing I was ever accused with, which reminds me of when I posted a voldemort gif and you said I was claiming scum in assassins' creed.
this is what you do as scum. you throw any logic out the window to push whatever you want pushed. you'd be more reasonable as town.
Idk about that millenial logic, if you were'nt shading what were you doing?
criticizing.
I struggle with following that. Criticizing involves attacking the arguments, much like Cerb and I do to each other. Shading is more ad hominem if you follow. It criticizes the person more than the argument. For instance, he's scum and not worth listening to. So when you call Sakura an entilted millenial, it has zero to do with her position but attacks her credibility as an individusl.
yeah I was criticizing the individual, cause I find her way to play unhelpful to town. it wasn't a read or shade of her, I townread sakura. when I want someone lynched, you bet I'm gonna leave it extremely clear for you titus.
you can shade an opinion without wanting the slot lynched.

I'm failing to understand how you struggle with the notion of criticizing someone being different from casting shade on their alignment. my reasoning for doing so with sakura is that 1) it bothered me and 2) I want helpfulness instead of people being obtuse on purpose for reasons.

notice I've done the same sort of comment with human sequencer. it wasn't a shade either, I was just trying to get his thoughts out there when he refused to do so. here:
you should explain your reasons in clear manner so everyone knows what your mindset really is instead of playing mysteriously like your read is so relevant it should be left for
later
because of
reasons
. IDK what fence-sittery means and rather have it spelled it out for me and the thread. if you're a villager, work with me. don't do this. it doesn't make you cool.

my last games here before I took a break, I was town with smocaine a lot and his play was 100% bad reads with obtuse reasoning and over the top confidence that I couldn't interact with in any way. If he was trying to win instead of appearing wise and always right, I'd maybe have an easier time playing town. other players do similar ego things that are unhelpful. I've grown to dislike it, so I'm preemptively aggressive with it. people can look cool in other games, I'd rather have them communicating clearly in games I'm in. especially when I care, which is the case.

cerb can be town for this post
really doubt it's faked
I'm also thinking Sakura is scummy but not necessarily for the same reasons
It looks like Sakura is putting a lot of effort into showing how little she cares, and it doesn't look like she doesn't care
Basically it looks like she's acting
I'm a little apprehensive because I was wrong on this read last game
Maybe Sakura just always looks like she's acting and being dishonest
I'm saying I should have pushed your response. both for the "RVS and fence-sitting" comment, for the reasons sando expose, and also because your reasoning for calling my stance fence-sitting doesn't match what I did. you said I was "doing a lot of conflict resolution", when I was townreading everyone that wagoned a certain player I did not have a townread on, and you should never have that read in the first place.
I immediately villa read your response but quickly regretted it and it looks worse everytime I look at it.
Nancy is lookin like her usual naive self, probably town
should be an easy sort with more content, specifically more content that isn't so emotionally charged
PEDIT:
alright mate
i really don't see why a vote can't be partly rvs
Maybe the meta has changed (I took a long break) but my understanding was when u join the game u put a random vote on whoever to get the game rolling
if u can find a reason to back it up, more power to you, but because of how early these votes are (this happened on fucking page three) they aren't really taken too seriously
fence sit comment literally comes from you saying "so I'm fine townreading all of them as much as it's possible this early" which lightly pinged me
"conflict resolution" comes from followup post 65 where you did this weird appeal that felt manipulative to me in the moment, and I responded defensively
either you made a bunch of weird off base but town motivated assumptions about me and how I play and are trying to get me to cooperate or you're stating the obvious as scum to try and make me feel like an idiot and make me act how you want me to whilst making it look like you're just trying to keep everything well mannered and calm
at the time I went with the latter
while reading more I've seen you promote that same kind of gamestate consistently, though, in situations where I can't find a scum motivation to do so, which is swaying me
so 1.
does all of that make sense
and 2.
does it even matter
and now I sleep
tfw didn't even manage to catch up

What do you think I’m being naive about specifically? And sorry about that, the wound is still fresh.

Sando puts more effort into their posts than anyone else in the game - probably town
I like how UFO is pushing people hard.
Brass is definitely different here than he was in Necro - a lot more content. I like his thought processes.
FA seems to have good tone.
I’m really liking Titus - plenty of nuanced reads, good interactions, plus is adorable.
Human seems okay so far, I will need to see more from him
Gamma seems okay, some posts seem to be a bit contradictory but tone seems villagery.
Random needs to start posting more. Seems like disinterested villa
Need more on Katsuki, Kokichi and Chick
Numbers - troll lol. Are they scum or just obvious mislynchbait?

If anyone has any comments about my reads, I will be leaving in a couple of hours and won’t be back until later in the week. Otherwise, it will probably have to wait until I get back since I’ll have extremely limited internet access.

This is both impossible/a lie and a scum-motivated post
How exactly is it scum-motivated? Or rather, why are you jumping the gun here?

I don’t see how either of the given abilities help scum. They look likely help town more tbqh.

Yeah, I’m thinking what Katsuki is claiming does seem farfetched but it seems like a strange thing to make up. Perhaps, he can squeeze some game-related content into his posts, so we can be better able to sort him?
Although Katsuki isn’t beyond making fake claims as either alignment. I’ve probably only been in a handful of games where I can confidently determine a scum motivtion - straight off the bat.

P.edit on D1 or early game. My reads get more detailed and have more context, the further into the game I get.

So my current TRs are FA, duckling and Sakura (who doesn't pick a mechanical fight with me as scum imo). I normally build a "Town list", a "not to be lynched today list", a "yeah ok you can lynch them list" and a "scum list". That said, are we coordinating the next leader openly? Cause while I think we should obviously go for as townie as possible in our leader list, there's some townies that I don't feel completely comfortable picking as leader (although still better choices than anyone not in townie list).

Scum have daychat correct? Otherwise I'd say as a means of coded messages.
